| Title | Strongly Interacting Matter in Magnetic Fields |
| Author(s) | Kharzeev, Dmitri;Landsteiner, Karl;Schmitt, Andreas;Yee, Ho-Ung |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2013. |
| Description | XIV, 624 p. 117 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The physics of strongly interacting matter in an external magnetic field is presently emerging as a topic of great cross-disciplinary interest for particle, nuclear, astro- and condensed matter physicists. It is known that strong magnetic fields are created in heavy ion collisions, an insight that has made it possible to study a variety of surprising and intriguing phenomena that emerge from the interplay of quantum anomalies, the topology of non-Abelian gauge fields, and the magnetic field. In particular, the non-trivial topological configurations of the gluon field induce a non-dissipative electric current in the presence of a magnetic field. These phenomena have led to an extended formulation of relativistic hydrodynamics, called chiral magnetohydrodynamics. ?? Hitherto unexpected applications in condensed matter physics include graphene and topological insulators. Other fields of application include astrophysics, where strong magnetic fields exist in magnetars and pulsars. Last but not least, an important new theoretical tool that will be revisited and which made much of the progress surveyed in this book possible is the holographic principle - the correspondence between quantum field theory and gravity in extra dimensions. Edited and authored by the pioneers and leading experts in this newly emerging field, this book offers a valuable resource for a broad community of physicists and graduate students |

| Title | Introduction to Superfluidity : Field-theoretical Approach and Applications |
| Author(s) | Schmitt, Andreas |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2015. |
| Description | VIII, 155 p. 26 illus., 11 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Superfluidity ??? and closely related to it, superconductivity ??? are very general phenomena that can occur on vastly different energy scales. Their underlying theoretical mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking is even more general and applies to a multitude of physical systems. ??In these lecture notes, a pedagogical introduction to the field-theory approach to superfluidity is presented. The connection to more traditional approaches, often formulated in a different language, is carefully explained in order to provide a consistent picture that is useful for students and researchers in all fields of physics. After introducing the basic concepts, such as the two-fluid model and the Goldstone mode, selected topics of current research are addressed, such as the BCS-BEC crossover and Cooper pairing with mismatched Fermi momenta |

| Title | Dense Matter in Compact Stars : A Pedagogical Introduction |
| Author(s) | Schmitt, Andreas |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2010. |
| Description | X, 147 p. 23 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The purpose of these lectures is to address the following two strongly coupled issues: ??? What is the ground state (and its properties) of dense (quark) matter? ??? What is the matter composition of a compact star? In order to fulfill their primary goal - to remain both concise and accessible to the beginning graduate student or other newcomers to the field - the only prerequisites are a working knowledge of statistical mechanics and thermodynamics as well as a first course in quantum field theory. More advanced material will be introduced as the text progresses and an appendix covers basic elements of thermal quantum field theory at finite chemical potential. Instead of developing all relevant formal tools (which is not even fully possible in the regime of QCD considered here), calculations are physically motivated, making the reader familiar with the theories and technicalities by ???learning by doing???. In this way these lectures will guide and prepare the reader towards further investigations and own theoretical research in this exciting field at the interface of nuclear, particle and astrophysics |
